Cash And Carry

What does it do ? I searched a few scripts that I thought might be relevant but found nothing except that it allows a UK convoy to switch locations. Not sure why that is. Nothing in the manual about it.

Should the Cash And Carry Bill [precursor to Lend-Lease] have any effect ? It allowed the UK to buy non-war materials from the US, the pick up and delivery had to be by the UK and they had to pay in cash [gold] at the time of pick up.

At first I thought the UK should get a few extra MPP's, but then I got confused. They had to pay for it, it was non-war stuff, they had to transport it themselves. What effect should it have on the game ?

Maybe "Cash and Carry" can be the reason for establishing the convoy between USA and UK...[8|]

I don't think so, because that might start MPP's going to UK earlier than they should. Cash And Carry starts 1939/11/05, Lend-Lease [and the SC3 convoy] starts when the USA hits 40% Allied leaning.

This is the Pop Up Text for a CONVOY script. It's really only mentioned to show that the US is keen to assist the UK to a certain extent, and because it was a historical event.
